Tag: Blue Ocean

In this screencast, you will learn how to configure a Jenkins Master, Jenkins Agent, install Blue Ocean, import a build from GitHub, and run tests against Docker containers in parallel. This is part 1 of 3 in our Jenkins Screencast series with the following topics:

Next in our series about Blue Ocean is a quick walk through on the creation and execution of pipelines. This will involve setup of the Jenkins server and a Git repository with our project’s code. I’ll be using a sample project built for this demo, keeping the pipeline simple for clarity. It will begin with securing a node from the swarm, selecting the build tools needed by our application, and running the build through a simple node command.

Jenkins Blue Ocean is the latest iteration of the modern Continuous Integration (CI) ecosystem from the industry standard Jenkins server. It gives a new, pipeline focused view to Jenkins jobs, while providing constant insight into each step of the process. Pipelines are a fantastic way to view traditional jobs, and Jenkins pipelines give you that new view backed by years of traditional CI power. Blue Ocean builds upon the solid foundation of the Jenkins CI server by providing both a cosmetic and functional overhaul for the modern process.
